Pembroke Community Videos

The Pembroke food pantry needs supplies for the over 175 families it serves. Unpaid volunteers run the operation in the north end of the Community Center next to where the TV studio was, and no funding comes from the Town.

Since those doors are usually locked, non-perishable food donations are accepted 24-hours/day at the fire station in Pembroke Center.

Other drop off sites include Pembroke Assembly of God on Route 53, 1st Church across from the Town Green, the post office, and the town hall. Both Pembroke Stop & Shops have boxes for donations too.

You can go food shopping and drop off items on your way out of the store.

Checks are welcome, and can be earmarked for specific purposes. Just attach a note, or write your conditions in the lower left corner.

Pembroke Media knows of one woman who consistently donates money intended for pet food purchases only. "Kitties need to eat too," she's been known to say. When the TV station was open, people came in and out of the building all the time. Food donations could be made, and the doors were open.Now with locked doors, reduced traffic, and no town funding, the food pantry has suffered a marked drop in donations.

Ever been inside or on top of a real water tower?

Brave Pembroke Media volunteers provide daring footage for this video about the Pudding Hill water tower dismantling project happening right now in Marshfield, Massachusetts.

The 125-ft structure was built in 1928 with a 600,000 gallon capacity tank. Each foot of height made .43 pound-per-square-inch(psi)of pressure during the tank's 85 years of service.

"This is the final phase of a project that has been on-going for years," said water department superintendent John Patch. "The old tank was deteriorating."

Four men from Costello Dismantling Company of West Wareham are doing the work: John Cunningham, Shawn Clouton, Carlos M Umama, and Ivan Vasquez. They are in the video wearing hardhats.

While a nearby replacement tank made by Phoenix Fabricators of Avon, Indiana stands 30 feet lower, the increased 1,000,000 gallon capacity should compensate for psi loss from reduced height. The new structure began service last month.

Marshfield has 15 wells within its borders, and also supplies water to Pembroke, Scituate, and Duxbury.

The Orpheus choral group is holding their annual summer concert August 16, 7:30 pm at the Mayflower Congregational Church, 207 Main Street, Kingston, Massachusetts. Grab your sweetheart and take advantage of this wholesome Friday night entertainment either before or after dinner. Tickets are $7.

Lie in Annual Town Report

If a vote doesn't go your way, just lie and say it did.

When the people of Pembroke, Massachusetts voted to get rid of PACTV, the selectmen were opposed. So instead of recording the vote as "Yes," town officials recorded the vote as "no action."

If you can't change peoples' vote, simply lie in the Annual Report.

Watch this video for actual, irrefutable video coverage captured by a 16-yr-old observer at that November 2012 meeting.
